TIMELAPSE: Highway fire temporarily disrupts morning traffic

Our tower cam appeared to show traffic moving normally after a fire on the highway near SPID and Airline broke out around 7:55 a.m. Thursday.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Crews worked to put out a fire on the highway Thursday morning just before 8 a.m. The tower cam appeared to show traffic along SPID near Airline and Staples was moved down to one lane only for a time before both lanes on a portion of the highway began diverting vehicles. 

CCPD assisted in traffic control after CCFD extinguished the fire.
